Serena Williams Not Commenting on Wozniacki’s Impersonation

*Serena Williams has so far declined to comment on her “friend” and fellow tennis player Caroline Wozniacki’s headline-making impersonation of her, which involved padding her shorts and top.

The 22-year-old Danish tennis player has been getting an earful since a video surfaced of her impression at last weekend’s Roger Federer Tour in Sao Paolo, Brazil. Wozniacki came out on the court, strutting around as Williams — who also participated in the exhibition event but was not in the stadium at the time.

Wizniacki ultimately lost the match to Maria Sharapova.

Though Wozniacki declined to comment to ABCNews.com, her rep said, “It was all in good fun as Serena is one of her closest friends on tour.”

A Williams rep declined to comment on Wozniacki’s impression when contacted by ABCNews.com.

Though the prank appeared to be a hit with the crowd, and even Federer could be seen laughing, others since then have found it to be in bad taste.

In a poll of readers on Huffington Post’s Black Voices section, 40 percent found the stunt to be racist. But 38 percent said it wasn’t and 21 percent weren’t sure.

“This is an old racist trope about our supposed hypersexuality and sexual abnormality,” commented Twitter user @hazzarDeuce on the Black Voices Twitter page.

“I know they are friends, but still, inside it does something to me, because we’ve been made fun of for so long for different parts of our bodies,” co-host Sherri Shepherd said on “The View” Tuesday. “And to see Serena Williams reduced to this, I don’t like it.”

But Elisabeth Hasselbeck thought the joke was a friendly jest between friends. “I think this is inside stuff that they always do,” she said.

“Serena Williams has so far declined to comment on her “friend” and fellow tennis player Caroline Wozniacki’s headline-making impersonation of her.”

To folks like Gayle K and whites who doesn’t get it, black people don’t really like to create any drama. They already complain enough about how sensitive blacks are.
Not because it’s coming from your so called friends like Novak, Roddick and this stupid girl, doesn’t mean it’s cool. And the only reason why they continue to do it, is because Serena is too nice to let them know how much it offends her. And she really doesn’t need to say anything. Because with social media like Twitter, there are more than enough folks who will speak on her behalf. But they continue, nonetheless. I guess now she knows who her friends really are.

Listen lady, please don’t paint Serena as a Saint, remember she cussed out a white referee and almost got banned from tennis. Based on the fact that Serena is black and the referee Sherri Sheperd said this was racism. Really? I like Serena and the reason why she’s not entertaining this foolishness is because this is a non story.

Elizabeth Hasselbeck is an idiot! You’ve never seen Serena prancing around with a blonde wig on and mashing down her butt and boobs! If this is what they do amongst each other, then she should have kept it between them and not come out in public like that. She’s probably just a hater anyway!

You have to be very selective who you call your friends because they can get too comfortable with you and think that they can say and do anything to you and you’ll be okay with that. Same thing with Gwenth Palthrow when she used the “N” word while she was with Beyonce and Jay-Z and they were fine with it.

SERENA WILLIAMS generally carries herself with
—- a GREAT DEAL of SELF-RESPECT,
—- a WHOLE LOT of PERSONAL DIGNITY,
—- a HIGH SENSE of REAL VALUE for FEMININITY and WOMAN-HOOD.

in a nutshell, SERENA WILLIAMS generally
COMPORTS HERSELF with DECORUM.

….interestsing points, but yes you are wrong. why? because this has been into something bigger than it truly is. Its between friends. which means it has nothing to do with US…. I respect Serena, but if she wanted to say something… she would have… so since she didnt…why are we?

That is the problem with people like you that post comments on behalf of your celebutantes. You think you know them personally from what you see yet you actually have zero credibility in regards to personally knowing Serena Williams aside from what you see on the news. So you create this gran fantasy of Hero Worship, damning the other person because YOU find their actions distasteful yet you actually have zero knowledge if Serena does.

The sad thing about internet Hero Worship is that you type stupid shit thinking you know this celebrity yet you do not (I’m guessing, since you have presented NO credentials as her OFFICIAL representative.) know her at all aside from what you see on the news. Thinking about it that way, it makes you kind of sad and pathetic huh?

I’m guessing you are possibly a man of color, who just happened to fall in love with the nice ass and tits of Serena Williams, which apparently due to Internet Hero Worship gives you the right to speak on her behalf. God people like you are truly pathetic.

If you think that the “impersonation” was a racist thing to do, then you’re fucking stupid. End of story. People are so quick to flip the race card, boo fucking hoo, get a life. The reason race is still an issue is because dumb people always want to bring it up and make a big deal out of skin color, cry me a damn river.

I dont see how it’s racist to pretend her bust and rear end are bigger, like Serena’s. Just because your chest and butt are bigger, doesn’t not automatically mean your playing a race card. She’s making a specific reference to a specific person, not to a race or even a general culture.

I really wish people wouldn’t toss the race card around so easily when in all honesty, it’s not.

Plus, if Serena isn’t tossing a fit about it, why do we all care? So they had some fun, big whoop. There’s alot of other things to be concerned about rather then some over-paid girl pretending to have bigger assets then she really has.

this is so stupid. Girls do this all the time with their friends. its only a big deal now, because they are on tv. its not a big deal, only the media wants people to think so because they get paid to. so what, serena has a nice big chest and round bottom. THATS FANTASTIC!!! whats the issue?

Everyone who thinks this is racist needs a sense of humor. Stop looking at everything negatively, if serena or a black woman, for that matter, did a white girl impersonation it wouldn’t be a big deal at all or even considered racist. Everyone needs to grow the fuck up
